Wishing for...

In all of my Shelly Long fantasies, I wish I had the sheer height and physique to be able to wear one of these.  (You can say it.  I am fine with the terms kaftan, dashiki, djellaba, long tunic, etc. applied to my wardrobe choices) 


Tory Burch Jana caftan.


Jules Reid.



Net a Porter.




Diane von Furstenberg.

Unfortunately, I don't think that the kaftan/dashiki/djellaba would translate on me as "effortless summer chic."  Rather, I think it would be total...





...Mrs. Roper.  Sad face. 

Cheers,

JSH

    No shame here, give me a caftan or tunic any day o' the week! I am even weirdly into Mrs. Roper's ensemble-- the print and the pom poms are really cute!
